NINTENDO 64 / N64 ROMS INFORMATION

Game console Nintendo 64 is already a classic 64-bit console from Nintendo. It debuted in 1996 in Japan, and finally came out around the world in 1997. This is the last serious console that used cartridges as physical media. Its competitors were Sony PlayStation and Sega Saturn.

Prior to the release of N64, Nintendo was the leading player in the video game consoles market. Its previous NES and SNES consoles became a huge success and launched a number of massively popular franchises. Nevertheless, it was more and more difficult to keep the first place: more and more newcomers appeared on the horizon, and even SEGA managed to practically catch up with Nintendo on sales.

The fifth generation of consoles threatened to become the most complex - and unpredictable. This was due to the beginning of the era of games with 3D graphics. Nintendo itself has been slightly puzzled after a scandalous decision first to conclude, and then break, an agreement with Sony on the creation of the Nintendo PlayStation. The console was supposed to be the most revolutionary in the generation, and the games would be released on CD.

In the end, Nintendo went its own way. While it was planning a "reality project", known to the public as Ultra 64, Sony created the PlayStation brand. Sony retained the CD carrier, which made it seem more modern than the Nintendo 64. That's what ultimately allowed it to win the "console war". If you were one of the owners of N64 or always wanted to play some games on this console, now it’s a perfect time. You don’t need to purchase the console, instead, simply download Nintendo 64 roms and launch them with emulator software. The hottest games of that time are available as N64 roms on or website.
